The role of extract on renal oxidative and biochemical markers in STZ-induced diabetes in rat.

Objective: The aim of the current study was to investigate the protective effect of (AT) against diabetes- induced renal oxidative stress in rats.

Materials And Methods: Fifty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups: control, STZ-induced diabetic rats, diabetic rats+ metformin, diabetic rats + AT extract, diabetic rats+ metformin+ AT extract. In the present study, diabetes was induced by a single-dose (55 mg/kg, ip) injection of streptozotocin (STZ).
